When in Digby…

You MUST have Scallops!

“The Scallops Capital of the World” so they say. Digby is known and is famous for its fleet of scallop trawlers and the “Digby Scallops”. Sea scallops are quite large and are perfect for pan searing. The part that is eaten is actually the adductor muscle that opens and closes the shell. Yum!

Balance is the key

Balance is the key to a happy, fulfilling life. Hard work and leisure, a lot of one and not too much of the other. An appreciation and enjoyment of both.

Today we went on a small hike to Balancing Rock in Tiverton, NS.

IMG_5015It’s a very easy groomed 2.5-km trail and 235-step staircase that leads to a platform with view of the Balancing Rock and St. Mary’s Bay. Just beautiful. This 9 meter high rock is a part of the North Mountain columnar basalt rocks which forms the cliffs along St. Mary’s Bay and the Bay of Fundy.

Our Home and Native Land! 🇨🇦

After being in foreign countries the last 4 years. We are HOME in Canada this year to celebrate Canada Day, how wonderful is that! So happy! It didn’t even matter that it rained and was overcast and fireworks got canceled.

We were in our Hometown Bridgewater for the Canada Day ceremony and festivities and that’s all that mattered.
